So it's official.. I'm 25. Yes. Quarter of a century, good times. Well... My birthday was... Just another tuesday, so was valentine's day. Nothing spectacular, maybe apart from dinner with Emma, it was.. quiet.
I suppose what got to me the most was when everyone started asking me whether or not I was going to do anything special with Sherms or what he'll be doing with me. Cause as much as I'd like to say that Valentine's day is just another day, it isn't. I'd like to have my partner spend that special day with me, but school and work just wasn't kind enough to offer us that luxury. Did I expect to feel this way on my birthday? I didn't, and I don't want to.
I've had worse birthdays before, ones where I'd block out for as long as I can and this would probably be one of them. Nothing to remember about, but everything to forget.
To make things a little better.. Perth decided to pull the Valentine's day card on me too. Everywhere I went.. it was just couples couples couples.. couples reservations.. couples menu.. like, seriously..?
Anyhow, I saw this video on Facebook and even though it's quite cheesy, it's rather sweet. =) and no.. That was not how valentine's day was like for me. Neither would I expect it to ever be. Just cause...

Like they say.. No expectations, no disappointments. Something I've learnt after 25 years.. Only have expectations for yourself never for others. That way, you'll never disappoint yourself and never be disappointed by others because it was never meant to be to begin with.
